Abstract

A device to detect and analyze defects in magnified scale images of a surface of a finished product illuminated with a blue light source and viewed by multiple image-capturing devices each focused on their own spot includes a supporting mechanism, a transmitting mechanism, a detecting mechanism, and a processor. The transmitting mechanism carries and transmits the product. The detecting mechanism includes a detecting frame, a blue light source assembly. The processor is used to connect to a camera assembly, and preprocess the image of the front of the product to obtain a detection and analysis of any defects of the front of the product.
